Hey! I attended the Graduate Workshop and they said that they compare your percentile to other people to pick AC candidates, instead of defining a good percentile score. For AC invites, they will consider the application holistically.- BM99

I think you can ask them again! I asked for my WG score right after I completed the test, didn't get a response at first. I sent another email for the scores a week later and they got back to me fairly quick. Also anyone here still hasn't received an offer or a rejection like me😂- BM99
